According to data from the XVI National Study on Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation in Spain 2020, each of us uses an average of 128 liters of water every day. Or, in other words, in our private lives, we are not very sustainable. This is because there are still many people who think that their individual actions have little or no influence on the gigantic challenge posed by climate change.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the philosophy we should apply is just the opposite, and it's urgent that we realize it. Taking advantage of the fact that this June 5th we celebrate&nbsp;<strong>World Environment Day<\/strong>, we take the reins and invite you to be aware that every drop counts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And what can each of us do in our homes? Changing small routines and incorporating some technologies to regulate water flow is enough to reduce our environmental footprint without affecting comfort in the slightest. And if contributing to environmental preservation isn't enough of an incentive, let's not forget that controlling water usage is also reflected in our bills, so the first and most immediate beneficiary will be your wallet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 HABITS WITH IMPACT<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A shower is better than a bath.&nbsp;<\/strong>As a general rule, we should avoid leaving the tap running longer than necessary, so it's better to shower and turn off the faucet to soap your hands or brush your teeth. As a final tip, we recommend that after turning off the water, you make sure the faucet isn't dripping.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The toilet is not a trash can.<\/strong>&nbsp;Place a trash can in the room for this purpose and avoid flushing the toilet unnecessarily.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Recycle the water you don&#x27;t use.&nbsp;<\/strong>Sometimes, if the faucet is far from the water heater, it takes a while for the water to heat up, which means liters of water go down the drain for no reason. It\u2019s estimated that up to 10,000 liters per person per year can be wasted this way, when it could be put to good use for cooking, washing dishes, watering plants, doing laundry\u2026 It\u2019s just a matter of having a place to store it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>INVEST IN TECHNOLOGY<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Limit the cistern download.&nbsp;<\/strong>There are several options: dual-flush toilets, interruptible systems, or flow restrictors.\u00a0Keep in mind that every time you flush the toilet, between 9 and 12 liters of water are used, whereas with a dual-flush system, we can reduce this figure by up to 4,000 liters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebathcollection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/dobledescarga-1024x573.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3248\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Choose advanced designs.&nbsp;<\/strong>The new toilet models feature a more efficient design that allows for better flushing performance using less water. The system&nbsp;<strong>rimless&nbsp;<\/strong>it is at the forefront of these new processes. This is a technology that has evolved water distribution during flushing, applying dynamic conduction that distributes water more homogeneously inside the bowl.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thebathcollection.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Rimlessgif-1024x576.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3240\"\/><figcaption>Bathco Antequera Rimless Toilet System<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Install aerators or water-saving devices on the faucets.<\/strong>&nbsp;These systems enhance the water flow by aerating it, which helps conserve water. They are also very beneficial in homes with hard water, as they prevent these minerals from coming out of the faucet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Go for single-handle faucets.&nbsp;<\/strong>These models have two major advantages: they prevent dripping from screw-on faucets, and, most importantly, you don\u2019t have to turn on both taps to get hot water, which means less water is wasted.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Install a thermostat in the shower.<\/strong>&nbsp;Water-saving showerheads and shower nozzles contain aerators that maintain water pressure while using less water.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any of these tips will help you optimize your water usage, but the most important one is to be mindful of what you do. Whenever you use water, remember that it won\u2019t last forever, so use it responsibly.&nbsp;<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":5849,"parent":0,"template":"","inspiration_categories":[55],"class_list":["post-5846","inspiration","type-inspiration","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","inspiration_categories-consejos"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Cuesti\u00f3n de peque\u00f1os gestos - Bathco<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thebathcollection.com\/en\/inspiration\/a-matter-of-small-gestures\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Cuesti\u00f3n de peque\u00f1os gestos - Bathco\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Te presentamos una serie de rutinas sostenibles y sencillas aplicaciones tecnol\u00f3gicas que optimizar\u00e1n tu consumo de agua en el cuarto de ba\u00f1o&nbsp; Los hogares son uno de los espacios donde m\u00e1s agua se consume.
